  2. my computer keeps on downloading random software

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    I appreciate your interest on windows 10.

    Before we proceed I would like you to answer the following question:

    • Could you please tell me whether the downloading software belongs to Microsoft?

    The issue might occur due to download of random softwares.I will certainly help you with the issue.

    I suggest you to follow the methods below:

    Method 1

    If downloading software belongs to Microsoft,then I suggest you to refer the article below:

    Windows Update: FAQ - Microsoft Support

    Note:Updates and drivers are installed automatically, with no need to select which updates are needed or not needed. In rare cases, a specific driver or update might temporarily cause issues with your device, and in this case
    you will need a way to prevent the problematic driver or update from reinstalling automatically the next time Windows Updates are installed.

    Method 2

    I also suggest you to follow the steps below and check:

    • press Windows + r to open run command.
    • Run services.msc to open Services Manager.
    • Ensure that the Windows Defender service is started and set to Automatic.

    Please get back to us with updated status. We will be happy to assist you further.

    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
